(2)Each Portfolio of the Smith Barney Concert Allocation Series (a "fund of
funds") invests in the shares of other mutual funds. The Management Fee for each
portfolio is 0.35%, and they have no direct expenses. The "Other Expenses"
figure reflects an indirect charge of the expenses of the underlying funds; it
is a weighted average of the expense ratios for the underlying funds in which
each portfolio is expected to be invested during the current fiscal year. See
the Fund prospectus (regarding Y shares) for information on the equity/fixed
income (including money market) investment target and range for each portfolio,
and for the expense ratios for the underlying funds. Such ratios range from
0.45% to 3.22%.

THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE
EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN.

Assuming a 5% annual return on assets (and contract charge of 0.009%), a $1,000
investment would be subject to the following expenses:
